Santa Fe Int'l Orders
Drilling Vessel From
Levingston Shipbuilding
Santa Fe International Corp.,
Los Angeles, Calif., has announced
it is building its second drilling
vessel of the Mariner class. Ed-
fred L. Shannon Jr., president, said
the new unit will be almost identi-
cal to Mariner 1, the world's first
twin->hulled column-stabilized drill-
ing unit. The only design changes
will be an increase in crew accom-
modations from 52 to 80 men and
a change in the location of the
derrick.
Like the Mariner 1, Mariner 2
will have an overall length of 270
feet and an overall width of 106
feet, narrow enough to permit it
to transit the Panama Canal.
Levingston Shipbuilding Co.,
Orange, Texas, has been awarded
the construction contract. The
new drilling vessel is expected to
be available for service in Septem-
ber 1972.
Largest Shipboard
Closed-Circuit TV
When the 24,178-ton Greek cruise
liner RHMS Atlantis recently com-
menced her cruising program from
New York, her passengers and crew
had television entertainment provid-
ed by Marconi Marine with what
is believed to be the largest ship-
board closed-circuit television sys-
tem ever installed aboard a merchant
vessel. The sophisticated television
entertainment complex, valued at ap-
proximately $145,110, was system-
designed by Marconi Marine especi-
ally for the Atlantis.
This ship, formerly the American
passenger liner President Roosevelt,
and now owned by Chandris Lines,
has been completely redesigned to
provide first class accommodations
for 1,200 cruising passengers. A new
deck has been added to incorporate
a number of public rooms.
The "nerve center" of the TV
system is the control desk, which con-
tains all the electronics necessary to
monitor and distribute simultaneous-
ly a choice of four different programs
to the 390 twelve-inch receivers situ-
ated in the vessel's cabins and to the
24-inch receivers installed in 14 of
the public rooms.
